Get ready to revolutionize your perception of technology ecosystems as we place data at the forefront, where it rightfully belongs. In a world preoccupied with apps, we make the case for a data-centric strategy, unravelling the knotty problems of disconnected silos and the transformative potential of unified data. Our conversation isn't just theoretical; it's packed with insights on how to pivot towards a data-driven mindset that can elevate your organization’s decision-making and unlock cost efficiencies.

The debate intensifies with the ever-engaging Chris, who joins us in full penguin attire, as we dissect the complexities surrounding Power Platform licensing. Through our robust dialogue, we shed light on the misconceptions tied to SharePoint's use as a database and the governance nightmares it can induce. As we tease our forthcoming deep dive into licensing costs, expect to gain clarity on making savvy technological investments that align with your business's unique needs.

Wrapping up, we reflect on data's omnipresence in society and the AI revolution in data management. Listen to stories from our guests—Chris Huntingford, Andrew Welch, Anna Demeny, and William Dorrington —about the trials and triumphs in data integration and AI's role in making sense of the information avalanche. Our parting thoughts leave you with a glimpse into the Microsoft MVP experience and a personal invite to connect as we anticipate Ryan Cunningham's first visit to New Zealand. Join us and become part of the conversation that’s reshaping the tech world, one byte at a time.

This year we're adding a new show to our line up - The AI Advantage. We'll discuss the skills you need to thrive in an AI-enabled world.
